So far I haven't found a single book that I can't get from Amazon for less than their 50% sale price (or with a $1 difference). I think they need to re-evaluate their pricing structure.

What I dislike about Amazon, though, is that you don't get the PDF, only "Kindle Edition".

I think he's referring to the print books.

I buy ebooks from o'reilly; idk why anyone would purchase a technical ebook from Amazon if they weren't forced to.

I much prefer the value I get from O'Reilly. No DRM. Any format I could want. The PDF is especially useful for technical material.
